Griffin Reinhart heads back to WHL

After making him a healthy scratch the first 3 games of the season, Garth Snow and the Islanders brass have decided to send Griffin Reinhart back the Western Hockey League. Griffin will join the Edmonton Oil Kings blue line after having a stellar preseason.

“It was disappointing when I heard the news I was coming back to Edmonton and I didn’t get the chance there,” he continued. “That was in their control and there is nothing more I can do. I just have to come here and focus on making the Oil Kings a better team.”

Expect Reinhart to be sent to Bridgeport at some point in 2014 because this kid is just too good to frustrated like the Nino situation.
